scanf(3) return value
The following part of the scanf(3) manpage probably needs to be reworded: The value .Dv EOF is returned if an input failure occurs before any conversion such as an end-of-file occurs. (I won't even attempt it, as I am not sure what the behaviour actually is.)
Firefox 18 library link error

With a little soldering-foo you will be able to make a decent external WLAN antenna. Even if you cant attach an external antenna, you can disassemble the stick and with a little bit sodering knowledge you can solder a coax cable in place, where you can attach an external antenna. Shure, you wont't get approval from Funkraumüberwachung, which is responsible for approval of such things in .at, but if the antenna gain is not too high, they won't notice at all.

Re: Get total size of all files in directory using unit Bytes?
Not really an answer to your question, I know, but what would such a

a.txt is 2 bytes long, but occupies the minimum allocation unit of
your filesystem (2 kilobytes, in your case). The total 8 is a
reference to the total number of sectors (512 bytes low level disk
allocation units) in use (2 files of 2 kilobytes use 4 kilobytes in
total and 4 kilobytes of storage require 8 physical disk sectors).

| How to let unit suffixes: Byte display (come out) but not Kilobyte?
Note that du is reporting the correct size. 2K for a.txt, 2K for
b.txt and 2K for the directory itself for a total of 6K.
If you want du to show you a number in bytes, touch a non-existing
file (i.e. create an empty file):
[weerd@despair] $ touch /tmp/X
[weerd@despair] $ du -sh /tmp/X
0B /tmp/X
| just like
| # du -b /home/test ( option -b not exist)
| 5B /home/test
/home/test is not 5 bytes. It's way bigger. As an upside, it won't
cost you any extra diskspace to grow a.txt with 10 more bytes. Up
until 2048 bytes, the space allocated to this file on the filesystem
does not change.
If you really want to know how many bytes are stored in a set of files
you could go
[weerd@despair] $ mkdir /tmp/test
[weerd@despair] $ cd /tmp/test
[weerd@despair] $ echo a a.txt
[weerd@despair] $ echo bb b.txt
[weerd@despair] $ ls -l
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 weerd wheel 2 Mar 3 21:54 a.txt
-rw-r--r-- 1 weerd wheel 3 Mar 3 21:54 b.txt
[weerd@despair] $ ls -l /tmp/test/* | awk '{SUM+=$5} END {print SUM}'
5
[weerd@despair] $ cat * | wc -c
5
The first approach iterates over the output of ls(1) and uses awk to
sum up the filesizes of all files in the listing. The second
solutions simply reads all files and writes them to wc(1) which then
shows a count of the number of bytes it read.
Note that neither of these solutions take hardlinks into account (or
subdirectories, or other fancy stuff). Also note that I have a
smaller minimum allocation unit on my /tmp partition, since the two
files consume 4 sectors worth of storage together.
You may want to read up on filesystem design.

Re: Softraid 3TB Problems
I got it working!!!
What Joel said was key. I had probably done it wrong the first time (didn't
use the b option in disklabel), and everytime I re-tried it after that, I
wasn't starting from scratch (zero'ing the two raid drives). So I booted
the SeaTools for DOS CD, and zero'ed the two 3TB drives this time, and then
re-installed with the March 1, 2013 snapshot of 5.3 (don't think this is
what fixed it though), and did the same procedure in my first post, and now
it works! When Joel said that, the light just went on in my head, cause I
had been wondering how to reverse the procedure and start over, but had
only been using the 'z' option in disklabel, and had only dd if=/dev/zero
the resulting softraid volume, not the 2 real volumes each time I started
over to try again.
A warm Thanks to everyone for their input.
Also, about the 4k sectors, I think Ken is right, I think Seagate's
smartalign technology takes care of it all behind the scenes so to speak,
and the OS still sees 512 byte sectors.
Might be worth a mention in the FAQ or something that if you don't setup
raid1 correctly the first time, to start over, you need to detach the raid
using bioctl, clear the disklabels, zero the raid volumes, and reinit them
in fdisk?

Joel,
Would the fact that my two 3TB drives (ST3000DM001) use 4k sectors
be the
reason I wasn't getting it working then?
Both of the drives in the dmesg you posted report 512-byte sectors.
Ken
The Seagate datasheet [1] claims that this drive (ST3000DM001) uses 4k
sectors.
Otherwise can I confirm that a Western Digital WD30EFRX 3TB drive with
512b sectors works fine with crypto softraid.
kind regards,

Many drives use 4K internally but still report to the outside world that
they use 512 byte sectors. Handling the translation/packing/unpacking
themselves. OpenBSD just reports (and trusts) what the drive reports
in response to READ_CAPACITY/READ_CAPACITY_16.

Re: 802.11n on obsd
Sean Shoufu Luo luosho...@gmail.com writes: Hi, Hi, Does OBSD support real 802.11n? It seems not. Although many 802.11n devices are claimed supported, 802.11n capability is mostly not excluded, like run(4), otus(4), urtwn(4). This has already been asked many times in the past. From the manpage of one of the wifi card drivers I use: CAVEATS The iwn driver does not support any of the 802.11n capabilities offered by the adapters. Additional work is required in ieee80211(9) before those features can be supported. The manpages you mention say the same. And, btw, how to find the official status page, for example, about supported hardward, the list provided in the page http://openbsd.org/i386.html seems not updated. www.openbsd.org and openbsd.org aren't the same machines, you should prefer the former.

dhclient not receiving dhcpoffers with wep connection but fine with wpa
I have been trying to configure a HP Pavilion dv5000(5210us) laptop to connect to a WEP network. I have tried OBSD 5.2 and CURRENT without success using WEP but can connect with WPA --personal hotspot. The network interfaces I have tried are Integrated wireless (bwi0 at pci3 dev 2 function 0 Broadcom BCM4318 rev 0x02: apic 1 int 21) USB adapter (rum0 at uhub0 port 1 Ralink Technology RT2573 EV 2.00/0.01 addr 2 MAC/BBP RT2573 (rev 0x2573a), RF RT2528) Both adapters fail to obtain a DHCP configuration with No acceptable DHCPOFFERS received when using WEP but have no issue when configured for WPA. I have used ifconfig interface scan to extract information to specify the channel and BSSID for my hostname.if WEP configuration. Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks.

Idea 1: Supply the information requested for problem reports in http://openbsd.org/report.html including your logs, and a tcpdump of any received DHCPOFFER packets. Idea 2: manually configure the interface and see if ANY network traffic (e.g. ping) makes it in or out. Ken

Serial and parallel port detection
Hi, For use in the GUI of an application, I need to have a list of detected serial and parallel ports. This list is used to fill a combo box where the user select the port to use (example: in Windows, it would be a list with COM1,COM2, etc. On OpenBSD, how can we retrieve the detected serial and parallel ports?

There is no clean machine-independent way. You could perhaps do something like use the output of pstat -t, but remove the console and pseudo-ttys, and you would probably be OK. The console devices will be somewhat machine dependent, but the pseudo-ttys are easy to spot.
